48MP folded/periscope-style telephoto, f/3.5, with OIS.

64. Does Samsung call it 4× optical zoom?

Samsung’s primary device specification instead emphasizes 10× Hybrid Optic Zoom. For manufacturer-grounded copy I would avoid making “4× optical zoom” the main retail claim.

65. What is Space Zoom?

Samsung combines its folded lens, high-resolution sensor, AI processing and digital zoom to provide up to 100× Space Zoom.

66. Is 100× zoom lossless?

No. Samsung explicitly notes that Super Resolution/Space Zoom includes digital zoom and image quality can decrease at high magnifications.

67. Is the current “zoom in without losing clarity” sentence too strong?

Yes. At high digital zoom levels there is quality loss, so that phrase should be softened.

68. What is the DepthVision camera?

A VGA/ToF depth-sensing camera used to assist depth-related functions. Samsung’s first-party spec calls it DepthVision rather than emphasizing a megapixel figure.

69. Should the page keep “0.3MP TOF 3D”?

It is technically another way of describing VGA-class resolution, but DepthVision Camera is more aligned with Samsung’s official terminology.

88. Does it support reverse wireless charging?

Yes. Samsung calls the feature Wireless PowerShare.

89. Should the page advertise “4.5W reverse wireless”?

For strict Samsung-grounded copy, I would simply say Wireless PowerShare supported, because Samsung’s first-party S20 specification does not emphasize that exact wattage.

90. Can Wireless PowerShare charge earbuds and watches?

Yes. Samsung specifically advertises charging compatible Galaxy Buds, watches and Qi-compatible phones.

SIM, 5G & connectivity

91. Does SM-G988B/DS support Dual SIM?

Samsung’s support archive also confirms Android 13 documentation for the SM-G988B family.

Factory-unlocked status does not mean every carrier will activate this international SM-G988B/DS. The European model has a broad LTE/Sub-6 5G band set, but activation still depends on IMEI eligibility, VoLTE/IMS provisioning, carrier certification, network policy, eSIM support and local coverage. Samsung itself notes that network bands and eSIM availability can differ by carrier and region.
